2099 Reviews: The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

The Amazing Spider-Man is a 2012 film that serves as the first film in a two-film series.

Good Qualities

1. Its portrayal of Spider-Man:
   1. The suit is pretty cool, with the sunglasses lenses and light-up web-shooters.
   2. Unlike the previous actor Tobey Macguire, Andrew Garfield looks more like the Peter Parker from the comics.
2. Direct references to the Ultimate Spider-Man comic.
3. The fight scenes are awesome.

Bad Qualities

1. The dark, gitty tone of the film, as well as the parents subplot, really makes it seem more like a Batman movie.
2. Peter seems too much of a "cool" guy, even riding a skateboard.
